The boys lacrosse regular season ends Saturday. Here’s a sneak peek at what the state tournament field could look like.

Things to keep in mind:

• The No. 1 seed in each conference must be a top-16 seed

• The top half, plus one, of each conference are eligible for the bracket

• Coaches will then vote on a top 24, based on the following: conference schedule, common opponents, strength of schedule, goals against and head to head results. Out-of-state games will be excluded from consideration.

Here’s what the postseason field might look like when it is revealed, based on information we have and that has been reported:

It doesn't get any easier for Thompson Valley and Kaley Lund this week. Coming off a loss to No. 6 Kent Denver, the Eagles play No. 2 Denver East on Wednesday and No. 1 Cherry Creek on Friday. (Karl Gehring, The Denver Post)

It’s likely that Thompson Valley girls lacrosse coach Liz Melahn circled this week when she took a look at this season’s schedule.

Why? The Eagles (8-2) face the top two teams in the state — at least by our standards — this week.
